4. Operation Guide
4.1 Operation Mode
Users can have different settings to satisfy their demands, the working modes
is as below:
Mode
Self usage (Default mode)
Charge priority
Force time
Micro Grid mode(Genset)
Explanation
The priority of the PV energy will be Load >battery> grid, which means the
energy generated by PV will be mainly used by local loads, and rest will be
stored in the battery, excessive power will be feed back into the grid.
The priority of the PV energy will be battery >Load >grid, which means the
energy generated by PV will be used to charge the battery first, and then used
by local loads, excessive power will be feed back into the grid.
User can set the charging and discharging time and priority of energy use
under Force Time Use mode. This is also used to flexibly make use of your
system by customized settings by the users.
When used in pure off grid application, users may connect the Gen set output
to grid input , when battery SOC is low. Inverter will use generator to take
the load and charge the battery.
Related Settings Application Notes
Effective when charge priority and force time charge/discharge are disable
increase the self consumption rate and reduce the energy bil significantly
Charge Priority and related time, SOC
When the load shedding always happens, users need to charge battery first
Force charge/discharge enable and disable, and related time SOC
This mode suits for situation where the price difference of energy is big under Time of Use (To U)

4.2.2 Settings Guidance
All setting items can be input or selected by the way of touching, just like
the way of operating a smart phone.
a) Common Setting
Common setting is the regular setting item. We can set the information of
time, communication terminal, start voltage of PV, as well as choosing the
ratio of CT, type of meter, type of battery, batter brand & capacity etc.
1. Notice that the setting range of the RS485 communication address is from
000 to 255, and it’s set to be 001 by default when manufactured. 2. In order
to the correct type of meter, we should confirm if the meter we are going to
install is a single phase meter or a three phase meter while setting the meter
mode.
3. Setting the CT mode: In order to set a correct CT proportion, we need to
inspect the marked proportion on the CT. We don’t need to set the type of CT.
4. Selecting the battery mode: we don’t need to set the battery type and
battery capacity. 5. Selecting the lead-acid battery mode: we need to select
the lead-acid battery capacity according to its real capacity, and don’t need
to choose the battery brand. 6. Selecting the Lithium mode: we need to choose
it based on the real brand, and ignore the setting of lead-acid battery
capacity.

b) Application Setting Enter into Application Setting interface:
1. UPS function can continually power the essential house loads in the case
of blackout. We should set the output voltage, Frequency and to enable
seamlessly switch function.
2. The anti-backflow function can prevent energy feed into the grid. Since in
some countries, users can not feed energy into grid, so they are able to
disable energy export function in the LCD, or set power percent which can feed
into grid.
3. Setting the max. input power to prevent input power overload.
4. When connect the generator to inverter AC terminal, users need to enable
mirco grid function so the inverter will use generator to charge battery and
will not export any power by AC terminal. 5. Switching on or off the equipment
to turn it into the standby mode from the quitting of normal status.
Noted: In the case of battery being turned off, we have to make it sure that
the capacity of the UPS port loads should smaller than the capacity of PV
output, and the enable PV grid off function will be normally working.
